DRILL AND TOOL OILER AND BRACKET.

Specification of Letters Patent. Pat nted Aug. 22, 1911.

Application filed May 29, 1911.- Serial No. 630,099.

T 0 all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, GEORGE M. HOERNER, a citizen of the United States,residing at Maple Rapids, in the county of Clinton, State of Michigan,have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Drill and ToolOilers and Brackets; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full,clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enableothers skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use thesame.

This invention relates to an adjustable drill and tool oiler, and hasfor its principal object to provide a novel construction of bracketadapted to support the oil tank.

Another object of the invention is to provide a bracket for the purposedescribed which may be swung either to the right or to the left andincluding means for ad-- justably supporting the oil tank.

A further object of the invention is to provide a device of thecharacter described which is composed of a minimum number of parts, istherefore simple in construction, and is cheap to manufacture.

With these and other objects in view, the invention consists in theconstruction and novel combination of parts hereinafter fully described,illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and pointed out in the claimshereto appended; it being understood that various changes in the form,proportion, size and minor details of construction, within the scope ofthe claims, may be resorted to without departing from the spirit orsacrificing any of the advantages of the invention.

In the drawing: Figure 1 is a side elevation showing my improved bracketand tank attached to a wall. Fig. 2 is a top plan view thereof, and Fig.3 is a perspective view of the wall bracket.

Like reference numerals designate corresponding parts in all the figuresof the drawing.

Referring to the drawing, the invention comprises a wall bracketdesignated as a whole by the reference character A. This bracket isformed of strap iron, and is bent outwardly and then rearwardly to forma double thickness arm 5 having a transverse opening 5 centrally formedtherethrough. The lower end of the bracket is bent outwardly at rightangles to form a second bearing arm 6 which is disposed directly belowthe first mentioned arm 5, and is formed with a transverse opening 7disposed in alinement with the opening 5 Suitable openings 8 are formedin the bracket, and are adapted to receive fastening screws or the like,whereby said bracket may be attached to a wall or other suit-ablesupport. A horizontally swinging arm 9 has one end disposed upon thebearing arm 5, and is formed with a flared opening 10 disposed inalinement with the opening 5 of said arm. A rod 11 is disposed withinthe openings 5 and 7, and is provided with a flared head 12 adapted tobe seated within the opening 10 of the arm 9. The end of the rod 11opposite said head 12 projects below the arm 6 of the bracket, and isscrew threaded as indicated by 13. Associated with the threaded end 13is a winged nut 14 for securely holding the arm 9 in a horizontalposition, yet permitting the swinging thereof. The outer end of the arm9 is formed with a plurality of transverse openings l515 wherethroughpass bolts 1616 carrying wing nuts 17-17. A brace 18 has one end' 19bent and perforated to receive one of the bolts 16, said end 19 beingdisposed between the arm 9 and the corresponding nut 17. The other end20 of the brace is oppositely bent and perforated to receive the bolt11. This end is disposed between the arm 6 of the bracket and the wingednut 14. As a result, it will be observed that the winged nut 14 securelyclamps the end 20 of the brace against movement. Disposed upon the arm 9is an extensible arm 21 which is formed with a longitudinal slot 22wherethrough passes the bolts 1616. The outer end of the extensible arm21 is provided with upwardly and downwardly extending arms 2323, theends 2424 thereof being bent outwardly in the same direct-ion andperforated to receive a rod 25, said rod being formed with a head 26 atone end and carrying a nut 27 at the other end.

My invention further comprises a cylindrical oil tank 28 which has aplurality of arms 2929 extending radially therefrom. Connected to theouter ends of these short arms are sleeves 3030, the bores of thesleeves being disposed in alinement for receiving the rod 25. Associatedwith one of the sleeves is a set screw 31 of any suitable type, wherebythe tank 28 may be held at any suitable height along the rod 25.Extending from the stop of the tank is a funnel 32, the interior thereofmerging with a threaded opening 33. A screw threaded closure plug 34: isdisposed within the opening 33. Connected to the bottom of the tank isaknurled plug 35, the removal thereof permitting the tank to be easilycleaned whenever so desired. Extending from the wall of the tank nearthe bottom thereof is an ordinary spigot 36 having a long thin nozzle 37by means of which the oil is freely directed to the drill or other tool.

From the foregoing, it will be observed that by reason of the aboveconstruction, the bracket can'be swung in a horizontal plane and the oiltank can also be swung in a hori- Zontal plane or may be adjusted alongits supporting rod as may be desired to suit various conditions of work.By this construction after the nozzle 87 has been directed to the sourceof work, the operator is then free to use both of his hands forthe work,the oil being adapted to flow from the tank in any suitable quantity asdesired WVhat is claimed is 1. A device of the character describedconsisting of a supporting bracket, an arm pivotally mounted upon thebracket to swing in a horizontal plane, upwardly and downwardlyextending arms connected to the outer end of the first mentioned arm,the ends of the second mentioned arms being perforated and bentoutwardly in the one end disposed upon the first arm and pivotallyconnected to the rod, an extensible arm connected to the supporting arm,up-

wardly and downwardly extending arms connected to the outer end of theextensible arm, the free ends of the last mentioned arms beingperforated and bent outwardly in the same direction, a rod journaled inthe opening, an oil tank, short arms extending radially from the tank,sleeves connected to the outer ends of the arms and disposed around therod, and means connected at one end of the sleeves for engagement withthe rod for holding the tank in its adjusted position.

In testimony whereof, I affix my signature, in presence of twowitnesses.

GEORGE M. HOERNER.
